CNVs conferring risk of autism or schizophrenia affect cognition in controls
Open accessAbstract
In a small fraction of patients with schizophrenia or autism, alleles of copy-number variants (CNVs) in their genomes are probably the strongest factors contributing to the pathogenesis of the disease. These CNVs may provide an entry point for investigations into the mechanisms of brain function and dysfunction alike. They are not fully penetrant and offer an opportunity to study their effects separate from that of manifest disease. Here we show in an Icelandic sample that a few of the CNVs clearly alter fecundity (measured as the number of children by age 45). Furthermore, we use various tests of cognitive function to demonstrate that control subjects carrying the CNVs perform at a level that is between that of schizophrenia patients and population controls. The CNVs do not all affect the same cognitive domains, hence the cognitive deficits that drive or accompany the pathogenesis vary from one CNV to another. Controls carrying the chromosome 15q11.2 deletion between breakpoints 1 and 2 (15q11.2(BP1-BP2) deletion) have a history of dyslexia and dyscalculia, even after adjusting for IQ in the analysis, and the CNV only confers modest effects on other cognitive traits. The 15q11.2(BP1-BP2) deletion affects brain structure in a pattern consistent with both that observed during first-episode psychosis in schizophrenia and that of structural correlates in dyslexia.

Stefansson et al. found a modest effect on verbal IQ (effect = 0.38, p = 0.033) and performance IQ (effect = 0.43, p = 0.018) from the 15q11.2 deletion.
“Stefansson et al. [38] found a modest effect on verbal IQ (effect = 0.38, p = 0.033) and performance IQ (effect = 0.43, p = 0.018) from the 15q11.2 deletion.”

The estimate of the effect of the 15q11.2 deletion on IQ is identical to the estimate measured in carriers in the general Icelandic population.
“This is identical to the estimate of the impact on IQ measured in carriers of the 15q11.2 deletion in the general Icelandic population41 and translates into a frequency of ID of 4.0% (compared with 2% in the general population).”

Penetrance of copy number variants can be highly variable, ranging from subtle effects detectable by neuropsychological tests to mild anxiety or ADHD to co-occurrence of severe psychiatric disorders.

In population samples unselected for disease, many large-effect CNVs associated with ASD or SCZ have relatively modest effects on fertility compared with diagnosed individuals.
“Although some large effect CNVs associated with ASD or SCZ have effects on fecundity, when discovered in population surveys in individuals without regard to disease status, many have relatively modest effects on the ability to have offspring, compared with those having the disease diagnosis (Stefansson et al., 2014).”

Estimates of selection based only on reproductive costs may underestimate selective pressure against schizophrenia-risk alleles because such alleles have multiple adverse effects, including rare CNVs that impair cognition and fecundity even without schizophrenia.
“estimates of selection (when based only on the reproductive costs of schizophrenia) may underestimate the actual selective pressure against such alleles given emerging evidence that such alleles have multiple adverse effects: for example, rare copy number variations (CNVs), implicated with penetrances ranging from 2–30% (the latter observed for 22q11.2 deletions), negatively impact cognition and F”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
